"The main event was a 3.4 rating, which is the fourth-highest rated boxing event for HBO. It was bigger than Khan versus Garcia, it was bigger than the Pacquiao delay, and this absolutely shows you that Adrien Broner has arrived and is going to be as big as they can be. This is absolutely outstanding."
All of the hype and controversy helped here obviously. For everyone complaining about the poor main event and undercard, it seems like the event was a success which means more Thurman and Broner in the future. Works for me as both guys are good fighters and intriguing personalities.
Yeah he's becoming a big superstar. As long as he doesn't lose, he'll be one of the top 5 biggest names in the sport within 2 years.
